K-pop idols who suffered injuries during their first performance came from the famous South Korean girl group, Red Velvet. This is because two members, Wendy and Joy, experienced incidents on stage that caused them injuries.

Joy Red Velvet once suffered an injury to her right shoulder and had to leave the stage during Red Velvet's concert in Singapore. She returned to the stage using a supporting hand device and continued her performance. On the other hand, Wendy Red Velvet fell from the 2.5-meter-high stage at SBS Gayo Daejeon 2019, resulting in a fractured pelvis and wrist, as well as injuries to her face.

Unlike the previous two members of Red Velvet, Yeonjung WJSN experienced an injury on stage during a rehearsal. This was due to the stage that WJSN was going to perform on being rained on, causing it to become wet and slippery.

Yeonjung WJSN was eventually taken to the hospital to receive special treatment for her injury. In the end, WJSN still performed at the event without wearing any footwear. However, the WJSN members still slipped during their performance, but fortunately, no serious injuries occurred.
